Going to chicago ruuuuuuules.
Going to Chicago for job market ruucks, uh, suuuules. you know.
A sad day today, my faithful espresso machine that almost singlehandedly got me through grad school died today. RIP. dead.
I hope that everyone is noticing the wonderfully (perhaps bad word choice) appallingly high number of Rich white corrupt republican officials that are being prosecuted for... Read More
Don't you hate those students that sit in the front row center, right in front of the teacher, and always make pointless comments, and laugh extra loud at all the jokes? This is even annoying for the professor, especially when that student is the last one to leave the room, follows the Professor, walks with the professor, badgers the professor with inane chatter.

It's 3:21 and I just got back from one of the best shows I have ever seen. If I had known it was going to be so good I would have told you to hop a bus to Providence. I hope you went to Wally's tonight. Sorry I never called. Things have been hectic and I hate telephones.

There's always Wally's for good jazz on Saturdays as well. It's small and relaxed and the people there are nice.
The calm before the storm is over. In rush papers, exams, annotated bibliographies, harried students, slackers, etc... I wish I could say that this is cutting into my social life, but -- alas, alack -- it is my social life.
Academia: like being a student but with out the perks of parties, casual sex, social life, etc...
But, on the lighter side. A student apologized... Read More
